Ingredients

plum : 1kg
Rock candy : 500g
White liquor : 1800ml

Time required

20minutes

Procedure

1) Ripe 01:02
Put the plums in a box so that they do not overlap as much as possible, cover them with a dry cloth or newspaper, and place them in a cool, dark place to ripen them to a golden color.
2) Prepare the plums 01:28
Use a bamboo skewer to remove the calyx, wash it with water, put it in a colander and leave it for about 30 minutes to drain it.
3) Put in a storage jar and add rock candy 02:12
Wipe the water from the plums one by one and put them in a storage jar. Put about half of 1kg of plums in a storage jar and add about half of 500g of rock candy over it.
4) Pour white liquor 03:33
Pour in white liquor, cover and lay in a dark and cool place.
5) Let the sugar blend in 04:17
Especially for the first 3 days, turn the storage bottle upside down about once a day to even out the sugar that has sunk to the bottom. After that, the sugar tends to sink, so occasionally turn it upside down to let the sugar blend in. Store in a cool, dark place out of the sun

Point

・ If it is fully ripe from the beginning, it is not necessary to fully ripen it. If you use too immature ome, you may get moldy before it is fully ripe, so if possible, it is recommended that you buy some ripe plums at a supermarket or a plum farmer who buys some ripe plums on the tree.
・ If you wash the plums with water before ripening, it may cause mold to grow, so be careful.
・ Ripe plums are soft and easily damaged, so wash them gently.
・ If the plum is scratched or damaged, cut it with a knife and remove it. Depending on the condition, mold may grow, so watch carefully.
・ Store in a cool and dark place out of the sun, and enjoy it from about 1 to 2 months. The more you lay it down, the more mellow and delicious it becomes.
